Best Buy Pre-Orders

[kdfdawg]

I was told yes, I'm trading in my S7E for what is likely more money and definitely less effort than selling it myself. I'll sell all my cases and 2016 gear VR later for a little pocket change.

when i went to preorder the plus the other day, they didn't even mention the trading in business. i'm currently on the new unlimited plan. this isn't just a promo for new lines, right? existing lines can participate too? i have a note4 that i want to trade in as well.

I hope they let me get my phone later today. For real. No reason to not release it early. If I go tomorrow it's going to be a crap show. I won't make it there till almost 6. When I ordered it too I put my mom's name on it since it's her account so they better not give me issues with that too. My name is on the VZW account and the rep should recognize me.

I was told by the store manager that they absolutely cannot process the sale. Their system doesn't allow it. I went up the food chain today and used my, um, "outside voice" and the best I could get was an apology and a $50 gift card.

Yes, on Verizon wireless's website it says if you're already on the unlimited plan you can still participate in the trade in offer.

Edit: be sure to check the details with Verizon, they'll only take trade ins for this offer for certain models, not sure if a note 4 is one of them.

Ordered GS8+ on Day 1, Online for In-store Pickup on VZW. Just got an email from BestBuy stating my order will be ready tomorrow for pickup. Then i look at the order status and it says ready for pick-up now. I will be heading to BB around 11 to attempt pickup and will let you know how it goes.

THis is what I have exactly and I already went to my best buy. They said that they cannot release the phone until tom. THeir system cannot even do it... bummer... but what is another day

Hmm. Idk if I'm going now. We'll see. Have to think about it. I could have sworn a few people were called to pick their phones up early today so Idk if I'm buying what best buy is saying.

For those who are getting status movements on BB's order status page; when you get movement, do you also get an email for the update?

I ordered in store for in store pickup. So I check status under guest.

Hoping mine jumps to preparing and then Rdy for pickup for tomorrow as well. Just hope to see something change within it today.

This scared me and angered me at the same time when I saw this! Lol. I hope mine changes back soon like yours, ClintRo, because I don't like seeing it, lol.

Honey attracts more bees than vinegar !!!

Slipping the guy a $20 for a nice lunch may help too

Lol I don't think that 20 is the only thing you had going for you.

OK, I have a plan!!!! I am going to use this to pick it up. Do you think they will buy it?!?!? Buahahaha!!!

It finally corrected itself and is back to what it said last night. I think it was just a glitch. When did you pre-order?
